Structure Vision’s NuDose^TM software adds dose uptake and gamma flux simulation to the cutting, packing and scheduling capabilities of the NuPlant^TM nuclear decommissioning software tool.

NuDose^TM extends the capabilities of the NuPlant^TM software by calculating dose uptake or gamma flux from radioactive sources. It uses a voxel based Monte-Carlo method to compute photon tracks through objects defined in the NuPlant^TM environment. These can be Nuclear facilities, containers packed with radioactive waste, or user defined objects and shields.

NuDose^TM has been validated against other commonly used Monte-Carlo radiation transport codes. It contains a comprehensive library of nuclear data, including photon cross sections and isotope decay modes, for common materials and the ability to quickly add new material data.

NuDose^TM can be used to:

Help build safety cases for handling radioactive waste
Determine optimal packing of waste according to activity and radiation constraints
Include dose uptake consideration in cutting, dismantling and packing simulations
Determine and analyse shielding requirements

NuDose^TM is aimed at decommissioning engineers, health physicists, waste managers and radiological engineers. It is available as part of the NuPlant^TM application suite.
